Rated 1 out of 5
by Stardust, 4 years agoI absolutely love internet archive and wayback machine, and I wanted so much to love this extension.
But unfortunately it keeps giving me a crazy amount of fake positive unavailable webpages sometimes before it even tries to load, ruining my navigation in almost every session.
So why not just turn down the option of automatic detection and replacement of these pages and just keep the other great functionnalities ?
Because you just can't, you also cannot just reload the current page you were trying to reach when the extension find a fake positive, you re just stuck.
So uninstallation is the only way to go.
As long as this extension is not fixed and give absolutely no option to turn down the messy automatic error detection, stay away from this extension.

- Rated 5 out of 5by realdickcheney, 4 days agoCitations lacking incomplete bilbiographic data make me SOOOO ANGRY that I need to go hunting. After, I use this extension to find archives of webpages cited on Wikipedia to help prevent link rot. It works wonderfully!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Celtice, a month agoThis extension is pretty convenient. I recommend running it only manually unless your internet connection and device resources (memory and so on) can easily handle it. My PC is very middleground in terms of hardware and my internet speeds and connection are deplorable so running it automatically on many pages was really slowing things down. If the extension just isn't pleasing me I regularly turn it off and just paste web links into the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine website.
